Important details to consider in a crown hair transplant. 
 


Hair transplant is a surgical procedure that involves the transplant of new hair to areas that are lacking hair due to baldness to create a natural hairstyle.
Hairline hair transplant and crown hair transplant are the most common types of hair transplant, but because the two areas are different in appearance and characteristics, the important factors to consider are different.
In particular, there are a number of differences between hair transplant at the crown of the head and hair transplant at the hairline, which must be fully understood and taken into account to achieve a successful outcome.

 


1. Consider hair direction and density
 


While the hairline grows in a relatively constant direction, the crown of the head is characterized by swirling hair growth.
Therefore, it is very important to achieve a natural swirling pattern when transplanting.
If the hairs are planted randomly without considering their direction, the result can be unnatural or awkward. This is why the skill of the surgeon is very important.
Also, the crown has a larger area than the hairline and hair loss can progress faster, so density control must be carefully considered.
The key is to effectively distribute the limited hair follicles to keep the density as natural and balanced as possible.

 

 

2. Consider the possibility of hair loss progression
 


Hair loss on the crown of the head is often progressive, so it is important to design not only for the current condition but also to anticipate future changes.
 It is possible that the surrounding hair will continue to fall out even after the transplant, so considering only the short-term effects can lead to an unnatural look in the long run.
Therefore, the design of the transplant must be such that it will not be awkward when the surrounding hair falls out, and in some cases, additional transplants may be required.
This is why it is also important for patients to take medication to prevent further hair loss.

 

 

3.Follicle Engraftment and Growth Characteristics
 


The crown area has a relatively low blood supply, which may result in lower follicle engraftment.
Therefore, adequate surgical techniques and post-operative care are very important and care must be taken to ensure that the follicles are stable for a period of time after the transplant.
Also, the crown of the head often requires longer hair than the hairline to look natural, so you may need a longer period of time before you are satisfied with the results.

 

 

4. Blending naturally with existing hair


While hairline transplants are dominated by the transplanted hair, it is important to blend with the existing hair on the crown of the head.
The thickness, density, and direction of the hair must be carefully considered, as the transplanted hair must blend in naturally with the existing hair.
It also requires follow-up care in case your existing hair becomes thinner and weaker.
